The most exciting birding story of the past decade had to be the 2004 discovery in the swamps of Arkansas of a species long thought to be extinct — the ivory-billed woodpecker.
But was the discovery a hoax?
Enjoy a screening of the outstanding documentary, Ghost Bird, that explores claims of rediscovery of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, and decide for yourself. Stick around afterwards for the Great Backyard Bird Count!
